About Me:

I am a retired public health educator and medical interpreter trainer from Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA. We bought land in Ecuador and and run a coffee shop/restaurant. I live in Mindo, Ecuador about 2-3 months/year and it is a beautiful, tiny, touristy pueblo that is the #1 birding spot in the world. Also has many large waterfalls, surrounded by protected national cloud forest. A lush and beautiful place. We are regularly running very popular workshops on Chocolate roasting and processing from the plant to chocolate bars. And we are now offering coffee origin tours.
